Independent film “Helvetica”

The film features on-camera interviews with such type design giants such as: Wim Crouwel, Herman Zapf, Erik Spiekermann and Massimo Vignelli to name but a few. However, the film goes much further:

It is a remarkable essay that illuminates how the complex and dynamic interactions of modern typography and visual design incorporate aesthetics, legibility, iconography, and artistic expression within our post-modern graphic mass communication medium.

The film is currently available for instant viewing on Netflix and more information, including some clips of the film can be found on its website.
